On my mother's side, her parents were named Blair and Wheldon (not Weldon). I don't think any of them are related to the Blairs in this thread. Going back to my great-grandfather, Neil Blair, all of his children are accounted for. Neil's children, three sons and a daughter, were William, David, Alexander (my grandfather), and... I can't remember his daughter's name, but anyway she stayed in Scotland. William moved, first, to South Africa, then subsequently to British Columbia. He had children in Scotland by one wife; but not children in B.C. by his second wife. It's not clear whether he divorced his first wife, who remained in Scotland. My grandfather Alexander Blair and granduncle David Blair both settled in Delaware. Certainly Alexander and descendants are not part of this lineage - I know them all. I don't think any of David's children are, either. Great-grandfat! her Neil Blair is believed to have settled in Chester County, Pennsylvania, having emigrated to the U. S. to get away from his wife. No children are known to have been born to him after he came to the U. S. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
